Citator
UpLaw has not yet analyzed Moore v. Georgia. The absence of a flag is not a finding that it is good law.
Mr. Justice Brennan and Mr. Justice Marshall,
dissenting.
Adhering to our views that the death penalty is in all circumstances cruel and unusual punishment prohibited by the Eighth and Fourteenth Amendments, Gregg v. Georgia, 428 U. S. 153, 227, 231 (1976), we would grant certiorari and vacate the death sentences in these cases.
